One person was taken from the Florida residence of the golfer Tiger Woods to a hospital early Tuesday morning after emergency responders received a medical 911 call, local authorities said.
It was unclear who had been hospitalized, but it did not appear to be Mr. Woods. Local news reports described a middle-aged woman with blond hair being wheeled from an ambulance into the emergency room of Health Central Hospital in Ocoee, Fla., a short drive from Mr. Woods’s home in an upscale subdivision in Windermere.
David Hepker, division manager for fire administration of the Orange County Fire Rescue Department, said he could not identify the patient and did not know what had prompted the call, nor did he know the condition of the person who had been taken to the hospital.
He said responders received the 911 call around 2:36 a.m. Eastern time on Tuesday.
It was the second time in recent weeks that authorities had been summoned to Mr. Woods’s home in the dead of night, and could add to the turmoil swirling around him. Mr. Woods crashed his sport-utility vehicle into a fire hydrant and a tree on a neighboring property around 2:30 a.m. on Nov. 27, an event that touched off a media frenzy and a flurry of claims by various women that they had affairs with Mr. Woods.
Mr. Woods, who is married, has since issued a public but unspecific apology, saying on his Web site, “I have let my family down and I regret those transgressions with all of my heart.”
Local television reports said a younger woman with blond hair was seen driving up to the hospital on Tuesday morning, just behind the ambulance. The car was described as a black Cadillac Escalade, similar to the one made famous in the early-morning accident two weeks ago.
